What were "my boys" up to?
"A democracy cannot survive as a permanent form of government. It can last only until its citizens discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority (who vote) will vote for those candidates promising the greatest benefits from the public purse, with the result that a democracy will always collapse from loose fiscal policies, always followed by a dictatorship." Lord Thomas MacCauley 1857

I love USMC gunny sgt's, or at least how they are portrayed, they make me smile.
I only once had the full on scream in your face experience when I was serving, there was 7 of us bootnecks transfering the old forward cab style ambulances down from London to Guz during the ambulance strike and we had to stay over at Blandford? so crashed in the guardroom and with it being the night before Crimbo leave we decided to join the party in the NAAFI bar, having nothing to wear we used the bedding to make togas out of and of we went. Someone decided to try and wake us up by screaming and shouting and putting the lights on the next morning but got a chorus of "fuck offs" for their trouble. We got up about nine ish. Next thing there's three swamped mattresses and a very excited Guard commander who's lost his sense of humour. We got lined up against the wall and some little stripey with a peaked cap pulled down to the end of his nose was strutting about like a peacock on heat, fuck he was humour, anyway he went up to one of the lads, stood on tiptoes and nose to nose started screaming like a banshie, well, what can you do, the lad getting a bollocking started to giggle, I was trying to suppress my laughter but lost it at this point. We all ended up sniggering and giggling at the clown. He got the hump and stormed off, we got bimbled around to the QM's paid for three mattresses (that already had maps of Africa on them when we arrived) and carried on with our journey to Guz.
